PJ: "The way that itís rationalized, and I think people in the Tolkien world have rationalized it as the ring doesnít really gain its power until Sauron comes back and actively starts to look for it, so itís asleep for a while and in the days of Frodo itís getting very agitated and it wants to find its way back to Sauron. Weíre taking that approach. But we are very gradually building up the effects of the ring within the movie. So the first time he puts it on itís simply a magic ring, but each time he puts it on the effect of it gets to him a bit more. Weíre doing a little story within that. " Northern Norway
